“ In today’s world of maximizing shareholder value, CEOs and their top managers have massive incentives to focus most of their attentions on the expectations market, rather than the real job of running the company producing real products and services. ... Expectations are where the money is, and improving real-market performance is the hardest and slowest way to increase expectations.— The Dumbest Idea In The World: Maximizing Shareholder Value - Forbes
In the period of shareholder capitalism, executive compensation has exploded while corporate performance has declined. “Maximizing shareholder value” turned out to be the disease of which it purported to be the cure. ”

“ We are making a thing. ... The process of making something is pretty much always the same. There are moments you find yourself suddenly able to express something you’ve been trying to convey for a very long time. There are moments when you are pretty sure that you are a fake. In moments of clarity, I remind myself that these are the well known features of the landscape of realizing a large project. The wrestling match between belief and disbelief is the actual matter of making things. If I am not coming up against these complexities, chances are I am not facing a big enough challenge. ”— Khaela Maricich (The Blow)

“ The U.S. political system becomes more polarized and more dysfunctional every cycle, at greater and greater human cost. The next Republican president will surely find himself or herself at least as stymied by this dysfunction as President Obama, as will the people the political system supposedly serves. ”— When Did the GOP Lose Touch With Reality?

“ If you are contemplating suicide, please know that you are not alone. You are part of a community of others, many of whom know what it is like to be hopelessly depressed. Many of whom are more than open for you to reach out to (if you only knew!). ... Please, pick someone and reach out. ”— Noisebridge Blog » Mitch Altman: Please reach out
